With the advancement of technology, the way of building the elevator cabin gradually changed and the elevators moved away from their original form and beauty and comfort were more important in their design. Therefore, different types of elevator cabins appeared with bodies of different materials and with different designs, and the elevator doors also got different shapes. Based on this, today the types of elevator cabins can be divided into the following categories:
⏬ Types of elevator cabins based on body type ⏬
🔽 Half cabin 🔽
Half cabins are mostly used in elevators that have a cargo aspect. The half-cabin consists of a floor and a fence around which the floor is stretched. Therefore, these types of cabins have low security and are not suitable for carrying passengers. which are usually located in elevators and we all have used them. These types of cabins, unlike half cabins, have a full wall and roof, their security is higher and they are used more in passenger elevators, wheelchair lifts, stretcher lifts and bed lifts.
⏬ Types of elevator cabins in terms of doors ⏬
The door of the elevator cabin can be designed as two-leaf and three-leaf, which are either automatic or semi-automatic. In general, the types of elevator cabins in terms of doors are:
⬅️ Elevator cabin with semi-automatic telescopic door
⬅️ Elevator cabin with fully automatic door Telescopic
⬅️ Elevator cabin with fully automatic central door (central)
⬅️ Elevator cabin with fully automatic central door (central) )
⏬ Types of elevator cabins in terms of user type ⏬
Since elevators are used in different places, the dimensions of the elevator cabin and its design can be different based on the type of use. For this reason, there is a classification of types of elevator cabins, based on their type of use and includes the following:
⬅️ home elevator cabin
⬅️ commercial elevator cabin
⬅️ warehouse elevator
⬅️ Store elevator
⬅️ Industrial elevator
⬅️ Agricultural elevator
⬅️ Workshop elevator
⬅️ Construction elevator
⏬ Types of elevator cabins based on body type ⏬
In order to choose the type of cabin, you should pay attention to points such as the weight of the cabin, the capacity of the elevator cabin, the specifications of the elevator cabin, the power of the elevator motor and the place where the elevator is going to be installed. The material of the elevator cabin and its interior decorations can be glass, galvanized, all steel, semi-steel, MDF and Formica.
🔽 Glass cabin 🔽
Cabin The glass elevator used in panoramic elevators is made of laminated glass and usually one or four sides of these elevators are made of glass. Of course, the cabin of these elevators can be circular and semi-circular in addition to square. In the construction of this type of elevator cabin, special attention must be paid to the standards, and glass cabins are usually considered luxury elevator cabins. Galvanized materials are used in the elevators of commercial and office buildings and towers. The reason is that galvanized is a resistant material and is very suitable for places where elevators are used to carry goods and furniture and where design and beauty are less important.
🔽 All-steel cabin 🔽
One of the most popular types of elevator cabins is all-steel cabins. This type of cabin is the most common cabin that can be seen in the elevator with different uses. In the all-steel cabin, the elevator wall and all the strips and sheets used in the elevator are made of steel. All steel cabins are in the form of brushed steel, smoked, wheat, mirror, golden, etc. They are steel with other materials such as MDF. Since steel cabins are one of the heaviest types of elevator cabins after glass, therefore it can be combined with other materials to make the cabin lighter and more beautiful. The combination of Formica with steel and MDF with steel is one of the most common semi-steel cabins. The steel used in the construction of full steel and semi-steel cabins is in two types: 201 steel (use steel) and 304 steel (do not use steel). Is. Stainless steel has magnetic properties, but in stainless steels, because there is a layer of chrome on it, their magnetism no longer works. The use of chrome layer creates more resistance and prevents corrosion and discoloration of steel. It is better to use stainless steel in areas where the humidity is higher (such as the northern and southern regions of the country), which has a longer shelf life.
🔽 MDF cabin 🔽
In this type of cabin, the walls are made of MDF. At the same time, MDF cabins are very simple, but due to the variety of colors, they have a high variety. MDF cabin is suitable for buildings with low traffic, and in terms of price, it has a relatively reasonable price.
🔽 Formica cabin It can be considered as one of the simplest and cheapest types of materials for elevator cabin after MDF, but on the other hand Formica has good resistance. Because the beauty of Formica is less beautiful than other materials, it is less used today.
